PainShield® MD - Breakthrough in Therapeutic Ultrasound

Ultrasound energy has been used for many years to relieve pain, muscle spasm and to enhance wound healing. PainShield MD ultrasound has been shown to reduce pain and increase wound healing via possible effects on nerves, blood vessels and nitric oxide formation. Conventional Ultrasound affects a narrow portion of tissue, while the PainShield action is much wider.

Conventional ultrasound units are limited by their cost and size, and even portable units are cumbersome to transport. The small number and length of treatment sessions that are possible with conventional units in a clinical setting limit the effectiveness of the therapy.

PainShield® MD

The PainShield® MD device solves all of the problems of conventional therapeutic ultrasound.

A small 3cm ultrasound transducer is contained in a self-adhering patch

The PainShield MD system can be used almost anywhere and anytime – at home, in a clinical setting, at work or even while sleeping

Treatment is not limited to the few occasions that a patient can visit a therapist's office. Allowing for time to charge the unit, up to two treatment sessions of 6.5 hours each can be applied each day.

Once applied, operation is hands-free

PainShield MD is simple to operate - one button switches the unit on and off.

Ultrasound energy penetrates up to 4 cm below the surface and the therapeutic action reaches up to 10 cm from the device

PainShield MD has been shown to alleviate the pain of trigeminal neuralgia and other pain conditions.
